Is this the right course for you?
This course is for mixers who are comfortable with EQ, compression, and routing and want to follow a complete hybrid mix. Roughly a year of mixing experience is recommended. You can use the included multitracks in your own DAW and practice the ideas with plugins you already own. If you’re just getting started, explore the beginner courses first.
